I picked him as my "full court shot". Glad to see some others are seeing the magic this kid has. He is like Barry Sanders playing WR. He gets the ball and spins, twists, bounces, and finds lanes and off he goes. He's absolutely electric. Great hands. Incredible field awareness. Somebody here called him a "smurf" and said Seattle would never draft him. I think he's in the Baldwin/Tate size range. He's be an awesome speed burner to put opposite of Rice. Or go 4 wide with Austin, Rice, Baldwin, and Tate. Our WR corps would take an exponential jump forward.

I was a hater, or thought we didn't need another smurf....but this smurf is impressive. After thinking about the ways Harvin, Cobb, and Sprolles are used I can see this guy as someone we would look to add for a few reasons. We don't have any home run hitters on offense....and we can cut Leon Washington (who is making a lot) and replace him with Austin.

I apologize to sharkhawk for being a dick to him about his love for Austin. I can see it as a possibility.....sharkhawk was right, I was wrong.

His size concerns me, but then again Deshawn Jackson is small/light..... and instead of just a slot guy I think you would just put him everywhere you could. Get him his touches. Give Tate one more year and see if he continues to improve. I would also like to see a TE drafted.

I do think you may have to pick him in the first but if the hawks make the playoffs it will be a good draft slot to get him.

Count me in with the "Please draft Tavon Austin" bunch. Here's his post OU-game interview: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q231h_Xbjb4 Seems to be humble without disregarding his value... and knows his Pro position (slot receiver) when asked about playing RB in the NFL (said he doesn't think he would last.) I can see unlimited production out of this guy... and could really help take our offense to an elite level. The only other receiver I would be equally excited about would be Brandon Coleman of Rutgers (who has that size and speed, but I haven't seen anything that he is thinking about declaring early.)

What are the chances that we draft him and what round? Dude is quick on his feet. Tate, Rice, Austin and Miller would give opposing defense's a serious match up to plan for every week. How would somebody not be open with those guys.
